What does Caline smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, and the occasions that come up most are daily wear, leisure and the office. Longevity is moderate and sillage is weak, so it stays close to the skin as a light scent. It has been discontinued.

It opens with orange, mandarin orange, apple and ivy, which read fresh and fruity. Jasmine, plum and lotus bring a floral softness to the heart. In the base, tonka bean, praliné and musk sweeten it into a powdery, gourmand warmth.
